Posted 1 year ago in Roads & Transport

***RADSTONE ROAD UPDATE*** < Click to read the notice of road closure here.

March update and extension of the Radstone road closure, until Friday 24 March 2023.

Due to the exceptionally wet weather in early March, we were unable to complete our works along (Radstone road) Brackley Road. To finish the diversion of the culvert, it is now necessary to extend our original closure by one week. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and will work to reopen the road to reduce disruption as soon as possible.

NOTIFICATION FROM EKFB-WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH HS2 

What are we doing? 

As part of our continued preparatory works for the Radstone Road Overbridge and the Brackley Cutting we will temporarily be diverting an existing culvert located beneath a section of Brackley Road, also known as Radstone Road.  

For reasons of safety and due to the nature of the works, which will include open trenches across the road, we are required to fully close this section of road, 24 hours per day for approximately ten days. Access to Radstone will be from the B4525 and the A43. 

This is for the safety of road users and our staff. 

When will these works take place? 

A section of the Brackley Road, also known as Radstone Road, will be fully closed, 24 hours a day, from Monday 6 March to Friday 17 March 2023, with a diversion in place; these works are subject to consents. 

We will work to open the roads to reduce disruption as soon as possible. 

When will the works take place?

Access to Radstone will be from the B4525 and the A43; we will maintain access for Radstone Residents at all times.
